Cluster..

 



The investigation into a cluster of omicron infections in Nebraska suggests the heavily mutated variant has a shorter incubation period and causes similar or milder symptoms compared to past variants for people who are vaccinated or previously infected, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The CDC released findings from an epidemiological investigation into six omicron cases confirmed from a single household in Nebraska.

A 48-year-old man who returned to the U.S. on Nov. 23 from a conference in Nigeria experienced symptoms a day later and tested positive for the virus on Nov. 26. The man, who was unvaccinated and had a prior history of symptomatic infection in 2020, reported he was not wearing a mask when he had close contact with a masked individual who was coughing at the international conference on Nov. 20.

Not vaccinated, not wearing a mask, and visiting Nigeria got a mild disease of Covid Omicron. Just a thought.
